automate boring stuff python

Expectations vary by title: several books are aimed at complete beginners and explicitly state no prior programming experience is required, while others target readers with some Python knowledge and cover intermediate topics.

Beginner-focused books use hands-on projects to teach automation and programming concepts. Typical exercises include building simple games (for example, a Space Invaders–style arcade game), creating data visualizations, deploying small web apps, and multiple practical projects that automate everyday tasks.
